So, a slight turn of events... we no longer have the boxers, and with all my hopes, they are lifeless carcasses now.

Out of nowhere, they attacked King and QC with my daughter right there. QC had the presence of mind to usher my daughter inside. She then tried to pull them apart and got bit in the process (by the male boxer). She tried to beat the other two boxer off King as King was trying to put himself in between the other two dogs and QC.

A neighbor came over and beat the male boxer with a stick and cornered it.

QC was on the phone with me as it was happening, and, of course, I was speeding home.

When I got home I tackled the female and had the gun to her head. QC told me not to kill them because I would get arrested. At that point, I really didn't care. I was about to empty my magazine into both of them.

She pleaded with me and convinced me not to. I called 911 and shortly two police arrived. QC and my daughter took King to the vet.

Both police officers, after seeing the large amount of blood everywhere asked me why I hadn't shot the dogs. I told them I wasn't here at the time of the attack, so I wouldn't be justified in shooting them.

"You would have been justified because you were here at the time of the attack. And, that gate wasn't padlocked shut, right?"

I looked at them and shook my head.

"Animal control is a stick up our ass. We have better things to do than waiting on them to come baby two dangerous animals. If I was you, both those dogs would be dead. You'd be justified in killing them. Case closed. Now we're free to chase juvi-crack heads instead of waiting on them to be gently rounded up."

And, I can't say I disagree with the LPPD officers. At best, these dogs are euthanized, and at worst, they are adopted out and a more horrific story happens involving a child instead of a 75lb dog that can hold his own against two other dogs.

The absolute best case scenario is that I should've cut out the middleman, blown away these two mongrels, and let the Parish dispose of the bodies. That is the best case for everyone... including tax-payers.

And, yes, QC's bite is fine. King got a little torn up but nothing too bad. He's on antibiotics, and eye salve, and pain meds. He's comfortably sleeping on the couch right now. My daughter, though, is a little traumatized. She was scared for King and is a little scared of other dogs now.

But as if to knock me down, reality came around
And without so much as a mere touch, cut me into little pieces

Wow! You showed a ton more restraint than I would have. In retrospect, their appearing in your yard may be the original owner's response to a similar situation, and they didn't want to do what ended happening, themselves. Suppositious, I realize. Good everybody came out relatively unscathed. It could have been way worse.
